2005 MBK Booster Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around MBK's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2005 MBK Booster utilizes a 49 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3.2 HP (2.3 kW) at 6,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 3.6 Nm (2.7 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 40.0 x 39.2 mm (1.6 x 1.5 inches) with a 7.2:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the Booster measures 75 kg (165 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 768 mm (30.2 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,172 mm (46.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 20.06-liter (5.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.

Within MotoLibrary's MBK archive, this model family spans 3 indexed model years from 2005 to 2007, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
